“ We were heading to the Nijo castle when we came across this restaurant. We were attracted by the cute logo and the atmosphere it radiates. We waited about 10 minutes before being seated. The waiters were nice and polite. We ordered Fried rice with thin omelet, thick pork katsu curry and honey toast. The food arrived quickly and all were yummy. Our daughter loved the food ”

“ One of few places around this area open from 8am. Like most cafés offering meals, they have curry and pasta dishes. Their prices are reasonable and so is their coffee, really enjoyed their Napolitan pasta (pasta adjusted to Japanese tastes). I definitely recommend the egg toast. ”

“ Really enjoyed my brunch here, very reasonably priced! I got the pasta and got the larger portion, absolutely filling! My partner got the curry and its very traditional and filling too.
